The Nintendo Switch is 6+ months old at this point and commercially a success. With stock having caught up recently in the United States and Super Mario Odyssey on the horizon, we look back to see how the Switch got to where it is today and then take a glance into the future to see how it can keep the success going.

On this episode of the Nintendo Prime Podcast, the hype man himself, HMK, has joined us, bringing his own unique perspective to the conversation. You can see some of his hypytastic content over on his YouTube channel.

As for our audio version of the full podcast, right now you’ll have to back us for $5 per month on Patreon to gain access until we can work out an affordable solution to make it readily available again on iTunes and Google Play.
